Your excavator shows up exactly where you need it, secured properly and ready to get back to making you money. No delays waiting for equipment that should have been there yesterday. No damage from improper loading or transport.
When your equipment moves with us, it arrives the same way it left – in perfect working condition. Your project stays on schedule because we understand that every day your machinery sits idle costs you real money.
You get equipment transport that actually works around your timeline, not the other way around. That means coordinating with your other contractors, working within your project deadlines, and making sure your equipment is where it needs to be when you need it there.
We’ve been moving heavy equipment across Long Island since 1997. What started as a logging operation has grown into one of the region’s most trusted equipment transport companies.
Josh personally oversees almost every move, which means your equipment gets the attention it deserves. We’re not a faceless corporation – we’re a local family business that understands our reputation rides with every load we haul.
When you work with us, you’re working with people who live and work in the same communities you do. We’ve built our business on relationships that last decades, not quick transactions that disappear when problems arise.
First, we assess your equipment and determine the right trailer configuration. Whether it’s a standard lowboy, RGN with removable gooseneck, or specialized Landoll trailer, we match the equipment to your specific machinery and route requirements.
Next, we handle all the permitting and route planning. New York has strict regulations for oversized loads, and we know exactly what permits you need and which routes work best for your specific equipment dimensions and weight.
On moving day, our experienced operators arrive with the right equipment to load your machinery safely. For RGN trailers, the detachable gooseneck creates a ramp so your equipment can be driven directly onto the trailer – no cranes or additional loading equipment needed.
We secure everything properly using professional tie-down systems, then transport your equipment along pre-planned routes. You get real-time updates on location and estimated arrival times, so you can coordinate with your crew and keep your project moving.

Our lowboy and RGN trailer fleet handles everything from compact skid steers to massive excavators. We transport bulldozers, backhoes, wheel loaders, pavers, rollers, cranes, and specialized construction equipment across Long Island and beyond.
Every transport includes proper securing with professional-grade chains and binders, route planning that avoids low bridges and weight restrictions, and all necessary permits for oversized loads. Our trailers are rated for over 100,000 pounds and operated by drivers who understand how to load, secure, and deliver heavy equipment safely.
For Hogtown contractors and construction companies, we coordinate with your project timelines and work around your schedule. Whether you’re moving equipment to a new job site, transporting machinery from an auction, or relocating your fleet for winter storage, we handle the logistics so you can focus on your business.
We use several trailer types depending on your equipment specifications. Standard lowboy trailers work well for most construction equipment and provide a low deck height that keeps tall machinery within legal height limits.
RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers are ideal when you need to drive equipment directly onto the trailer. The detachable front section creates a ramp, eliminating the need for cranes or additional loading equipment. This works particularly well for self-powered machinery like excavators, bulldozers, and wheel loaders.
Landoll trailers offer hydraulic tilt capabilities and sliding axle configurations, making them perfect for equipment that requires precise positioning during loading and unloading. We select the right trailer based on your equipment’s dimensions, weight, and loading requirements.
New York has specific regulations for oversized equipment transport, and we handle all the permitting for you. The state limits loads to 80,000 pounds gross vehicle weight, 8 feet 6 inches width, and has strict length restrictions depending on the route.
We obtain the necessary oversize permits before transport and plan routes that avoid restricted areas like New York City, where width is limited to 8 feet. For very large loads, we may need to conduct route surveys to identify potential obstacles like low bridges or weight-restricted roads.
Our experience with New York’s regulations means we know which permits you need, how long they take to process, and which routes provide the safest, most efficient transport for your specific equipment.
Our service includes everything needed for safe, legal equipment transport. We provide the appropriate trailer, experienced operator, all necessary permits, and professional tie-down equipment rated for your machinery’s weight and dimensions.
Route planning is included to avoid low bridges, weight restrictions, and other obstacles that could delay your transport. We coordinate pickup and delivery times with your schedule and provide real-time updates during transport so you know exactly when to expect your equipment.
Insurance coverage protects your equipment during transport, and our operators are trained in proper loading, securing, and unloading procedures. If your equipment requires special handling or has unique dimensions, we adjust our approach accordingly.
For standard equipment moves within Long Island, we typically need 2-3 days notice to secure permits and schedule the appropriate trailer and operator. This gives us time to plan the optimal route and ensure we have the right equipment for your specific machinery.
Oversized loads or equipment requiring special permits may need additional lead time, particularly if route surveys are required. Very large or heavy equipment might need up to a week for proper planning and permitting, especially if transport involves multiple states.
For emergency equipment moves, we can often accommodate same-day or next-day transport, though this may involve premium pricing. The key is calling us as soon as you know you need equipment moved – the more notice you can give us, the better we can coordinate with your project timeline.
Yes, our operators are trained in safe loading and unloading procedures for all types of construction equipment. For RGN trailers, the removable gooseneck creates a ramp that allows your equipment to be driven directly onto the trailer, which is often the safest and most efficient method.
When equipment can’t be driven onto the trailer, we coordinate with local crane services or use other appropriate loading equipment. Our operators understand proper weight distribution, tie-down points, and securing procedures for different types of machinery.
We also handle ground loading situations where equipment needs to be positioned precisely at the delivery site. Our experienced operators work with your crew to ensure equipment is unloaded safely and positioned where you need it for your project.
Safety starts with using the right trailer for your specific equipment. We match trailer capacity to your machinery’s weight and dimensions, ensuring we’re well within legal and safe operating limits. Our trailers are regularly inspected and maintained to DOT standards.
All equipment is secured using professional-grade chains, binders, and tie-down systems rated for the specific load. Our operators are trained in proper securing techniques and understand the tie-down points for different types of construction equipment.
During transport, we follow pre-planned routes that avoid known hazards and maintain appropriate speeds for the load. Our operators are experienced with oversized load transport and understand how equipment weight affects braking, turning, and overall vehicle handling. Real-time communication keeps you informed throughout the transport process.
